    My name is Nunya.

    It's an american name that was borne out of the competing american linguistic evolutions of ebonics, spanglish, and southern drawl. It means "Nunya business."

    Amy, Latin for "beloved".

    My mom named me after the character in Little Women because she knew I'd be blonde-haired and blue-eyed. (Green, close enough.) And because, in her words, "even though she was kind of a b**** in the beginning of the novel, in the end she was the beautiful sister who moved to Paris and got the dreamy guy". Yup.

    Sorry if you are in the middle of reading Little Women for the first time and I just ruined it for you.

    Eric, from old Norse Eirikr ei 'ever' and rikr 'ruler' (Grandfather came over from Denmark)
    So...it can mean
    One Ruler
    Autocrat (not to be confused with Autobot)
    Eternal Ruler
    Or, Ever powerful

    Which is a hoot because my wife overrides me!
